The stuff that's happening around the world these days; it's disturbing. Very disturbing. So much so that I pretty much fear bringing my child into the world in 15 years time. I fear for what kind of influences my child would be under. I'd rather not have a child, then one who might not be saved. It's weird. Told you weird thoughts play in my head.
Just on Sunday, on the main page, I saw this article about teenage girls having sex with men for money. Read it inside. The youngest girl was 13, and she had sex with 6 men to get money before reporting them for having sex with someone below 16. And the saddest thing is this; they don't feel regret or guilt. To them, there's nothing wrong with doing that. This world is sick. Sick. Sick. This world really, really needs God.
Really, I could never picture me doing such a thing. Selling my body just for a few pieces of laminated paper which won't be worth anything when I die. God help this world.
Then today, as I got off the bus, this man carrying his young son shouted at the driver. Well, by my stop everybody usually gets off, so it was only me left behind him, and he was scolding the driver for I don't know what. Ok, so I was sleeping the journey from the TPE onwards. The thing was, this man had his young, innocent son with him, and he was ticking this driver off for 'not driving properly'. I really don't know why. As I walked away, I could still hear him shouting at the driver with exaggerated hand actions through the bus door. Seriously, the only fault I could find with this driver was that he was going really slowly.
But come on, in front of a young child, doing that? I don't think that's a very good example, is it? What the child sees, he would pick up, that's for sure. He was probably only 3/4, and at that age, everything that goes in stays in. I think.
So much is blamed on the generation today. So much; our behaviour, mannerism, etc etc. But is it really our fault? Where could we have learnt all this from? I guess it's either the media or the real people we see in our lives. Well, both are rather... linked, right?
Adults.
Obviously we have to follow something or someone, don't we? (Not saying I'm some problematic kid to society...) But dang. I'm just worried about the world. So worried.
Maybe it's about time I started praying. Yes, it IS time we all started praying.
